Thank you very much for your most interesting reply.

Matthew Smith  my great grandfather was known to have a cousin in the Strabane area (name unknown) who was a farmer and from whom Matthew's son RJ obtained his butter for his business in Strabane

This cousin later moved to Scotland in the Aberdeen area

You also mention Sweeney and Co Egg and Butter Merchants in Strabane

RJ's son Robert Smith married Irene Sweeney born 1900 daughter of Tom Sweeney and ? Dean. My mother who is 97 told me that the Sweeney's were in the "egg business"

I knew that there had to be a reason for the choice of Honeyford as a 2nd name. I would love to have any information you have in this area and also to be in contact with your Sweeney researcher

Looking for links to the name Honeyford in Co Tyrone. My great grandparents

Matthew Smith and Eliza Caldwell had named their last child

George Honeyford Smith and there are no other instances of Honeyford in the family that I know of
